Honestly I can“t believe it. So we are paying for a software that is useless for trading ALL the equities in NASDAQ in Premarket. Is that what you mean? None of the other platforms have those spikes. Those spikes make you go in or out of any strategy, as they are huge. How can other platforms have the data correctly?

I just found this tread. I'm having he same problem with 5am ET open where odd lots are screwing up my charts. Was there any resolution to this? Is there a way to filter or fix this? It does make the chart unusable even after turning off odd lots in the settings. Thanks

SC - Any idea on why intraday candles on stocks often show real price moves higher than the daily candles show?

See PLTR as example. Intraday earnings spike trades millions of shares up to Intraday High of 222.00. Yet Daily Candle shows High of Day at 207.52

That chart is set to US Pacific time and is showing after-hours trading. After hours trading is not included in Daily charts. Always be clear with what you are posting.

What you are posting is simply misleading because US equities trade according to US Eastern time. Not Pacific time.

Time zone shouldn't matter for Daily candles.
The real issue is that Daily candles for stocks do NOT include any after hours trades.
This somehow I did not know. Thanks this answers the question.
